Water from a flooded basement gushes from a hose on Old Town Square August 15, 2002 in Prague, Czech Republic. The worst flooding hit the city in over a century yesterday. The Vltava River, which runs through the city, began going down after reaching its peak the day before, though danger was still looming as at least two buildings collapsed in working-class districts near the center. In the background are pictured the Astronomical Clock and Tyn Church. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images) Date created: 15 Aug 2002
